Piano Solo - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.693001 Composed by Ben Dockery. Children,Contemporary,Romantic Period,Standards. Score. 2 pages. Ben Dockery #3126649. Published by Ben Dockery (A0.693001). This romantic waltz is the third in my series of impromptus inspired by sounds of childhood, namely the theme music from early nineties game systems like Nintendo. This short piece (app. 1 min. 20 sec.) is reminiscent of the occasional love themes from various games. Often the music was in stark contrast from the more rambunctious and syncopated main themes. Performers should approach this piece the same way they would a Chopin waltz: careful voicing of all parts but especially the primary melody, regular use of rubato, and a sensitive touch. The middle section has the left-hand playing the melody solo voce while the right-hand plays repetitive chords. Be sure to keep the right-hand accompaniment softer than the left in this section.

Broadway,Musical/Show,Romantic Period,Standards,Wedding. Score and parts. 50 pages. Joel Jacklich #647978. Published by Joel Jacklich (A0.1043293). Franz Lear's famous Gold and Silver Waltz is here arranged for string quartet by Joel Jacklich (A.S.C.A.P.) Care has been taken to arrange page turns at suitable places (with a note in the parts when a page turn occurs in another player's part). Lehár wrote his Gold and Silver Waltz at the request of the socialite, fashion trend-setter and arts patron (of Wagner and Smetana, among others) Princess Pauline von Metternich for the eponymous ball she gave at Vienna’s Sophiensäle on January 27, 1902. She asked for “something especially fine†and was rewarded with one of the masterworks of the twilight years of the Viennese waltz.

Brass Ensemble Bass Trombone,Horn,Trumpet,Tuba - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1138940 Composed by Jack Lawrence and Sammy Fain. Arranged by George Bruns, Bob Coil. 20th Century,Children,Classical,Film/TV,Wedding. Score and parts. 18 pages. Polished Brass #739235. Published by Polished Brass (A0.1138940). This arrangement for brass quintet starts with the theme as adapted for the Disney film by George Bruns and then transitions to a setting that reflects the orchestral version by Tchaikovsky. The range is moderate except for the trombone, in which the melody ascends to c2 briefly. The notes are queued in the second trumpet if the range is not secure for the trombonist. Since this piece is often used in weddings, it may need to be shortened, so cadence points have been indicated in the parts for optional endings. The animated film “Sleeping Beauty†was released by Disney Studios in 1959, with the voice of Princess Aurora being sung by Mary Costa. In the Ballet, the waltz is No. 6 in Act 1. The arranger, Bob Coil, is a graduate of the University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of music, where he studied bass trombone with Betty Glover. Dr. Coil is the leader of the Bones of Cincinnatus trombone ensemble and the Polished Brass quintet in Cincinnati, OH.

Solo Guitar - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1408004 By The Candlelight Guitarist. By Bradley Powell. Classical,Contemporary,Folk,Jazz,New Age. Individual part. 5 pages. Geofonica Artistworks #990570. Published by Geofonica Artistworks (A0.1408004). Ode to Jane is an intermediate level classical guitar solo, composed by Bradley Powell, in honor of Dame Jane Goodall's 90th birthday celebration (4/3/24). Jane Goodall is a world-famous primatologist and anthropologist, considered the world's foremost expert on chimpanzees. She has changed the world with her studies, and continues to do so with environmental and educational activism. Brad Powell met Ms. Goodall in the early 1990s, and has composed this piece in her honor. It is a relaxing waltz style, using intermediate-level classical guitar technique, with both folk and modern jazz guitar chord voicings. This is in STANDARD NOTATION (without TAB). (A version that includes TAB will be available separately, very soon.)ABOUT the composer: Brad Powell (aka The Candlelight Guitarist) began guitar at age ten, inspired by The Beatles. At 15, he became a protégé of jazz guitarist Joe Pass, and later studied classical guitar under Vincent Macaluso, and at California State University, Northridge under Ronald Purcell, with a master class under Andrés Segovia. Brad was featured performing Gerald Wilson's Sonata for Guitar and Orchestra at the Hollywood Bowl, with the composer conducting. Brad was mentored in composition by David Rose (composer for Little House on the Prairie). Brad has composed music for TV, including Hill Street Blues and The 'A' Team, working with Mike Post. Brad has ten albums as The Candlelight Guitarist. When not making music, Brad is often out hiking with his four dogs. Brad also played as the solo guitarist for Disney's Princess Breakfast Adventure at Disney's Grand Californian Resort by Disneyland (March 2019-January 2024), providing music for the Disney Princesses (Belle, Tiana, Jasmine, Rapunzel, Mulan, Aurora, Ariel, Pocahontas, Cinderella, and their friends and guests).COMMENTS FROM LONG-ESTABLISHED REVIEWERS (for this and other Candlelight Guitarist recordings)...Bill Binkelman - Music Reviewer for Zone Music Reporter and New Age RetailerThe Candleight Guitarist is your tour guide to a land of easy-going, warm, and inviting instrumentals.Rebecca of Amazon - Amazon.com HALL OF FAME TOP 500 REVIEWERBradley Powell's flawless playing allows you to completely relax into sleep or relax into an evening of candlelight and romance.

Chamber Orchestra - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.922635 Composed by Johann Strauss Jr. Arranged by Aaron Meier. Romantic Period,World. Score and parts. 7 pages. Aaron Meier #5792353. Published by Aaron Meier (A0.922635). Original by Johann Strauss II Reduction to String Orchestra by Aaron Meier Part: Full Score ONLY True to the original work by Strauss, this reduction for string orchestra features the ornaments and mystical writing that defines Strauss' polkas. There are optional percussion parts to be added at the discretion of the ensemble, however even without percussion the ensemble will sound full (the percussion acts as an ornament). Difficulty: Intermediate-advanced - advanced (best-suited for advanced student ensembles) ---Performance Notes: • Approximate length: 3:30 minutes • 1st Violins: In m. 1, trill a half step from a D♠to a D♮ • 2nd Violins:  - At m. 42, divide players by 3, with 2 players playing line A and the remaining player playing line B  - At m. 72-75, emphasize the E♠in the div. • Snare Drum: The buzz roll needs to be quieter than how it is played in the midi recording (*see YouTube link ↓) History: The Olga-Polka itself owed its creation to a Russian royal wedding which took place in St. Petersburg on 28 August 1857. On that day, amid accompanying splendour, the music-loving Grand Duke Michail Nikolaievich (1832-1909), youngest brother of Tsar Alexander II, married Princess Caecilie of Baden (1839-91), daughter of Archduke Leopold of Baden. Johann Strauss, who at that time was giving a summer season of concerts in nearby Pavlovsk, used the opportunity occasioned by the event to enhance his already enviable popularity with the Russian royal family and composed the Caecilien-Polka in honour of the lovely young bride. Indeed, it is clear from a letter which Johann wrote in late July 1857 to Carl Haslinger, his publisher in Vienna, that the new polka had been prepared well in advance of the wedding (the fair copy of the full orchestral score made for the publisher's engraver is dated 9 August) and was enjoying success even before the royal couple's official engagement on 16August 1857. Sometime after performing the Caecilien-Polka in Pavlovsk, Johann despatched the work to the Austrian capital where his brother Josef conducted its Viennese première, together with that of Johann's waltz Telegraphische Depeschen (op. 195, Volume 28), at his own benefit concert in the Volksgartenon Sunday 18 October 1857. The Wiener Allgemeine Theaterzeitung (16.10.1857) remarked that both works have caused a sensation in St. Petersburg and are truly genial Viennese sounds full of verve and melody. Since tradition demanded that the German Princess Caecilie adopt a Russian name - Olga Feodorovna - before her marriage, so Johann's Caecilien-Polka also underwent a change of identity. On 8 December 1857 Carl Haslinger announced the publication of Strauss's Olga-Polka, on the title page of which is the inscription: Dedicated to her Imperial Highness Grand Duchess Olga, née Princess of Baden. It was under this title, too, that Johann himself first conducted the work in Vienna at a concert in the Volksgarten on 1 November 1857, shortly after his return from Russia. Reporting on this event, the Wiener Allgemeine Theaterzeitung (3.11.1857) observed: The 'Olga-Polka' is a most delightful, fragrant musical bouquet, full of fine, gracious rhythms.
